Baby Chick Pictures!!!!! POST!

[elmtree]

So my week old BO baby has all white wing feathers. Is that normal?

Oh goodness, I have a ton...

These kids are only 3-4 weeks old. I have six total, and each is a different breed: EE, Barred Rock, Ancona, Buff Orp, White Rock, and Speckled Sussex.

(some of these pics are indoors on carpet, during puppy's "chicken time" to train him how to behave around chickens. Trust me when I saw, I was there with a towel to catch any poop before it could hit the floor, since early training had to be done indoors for the safety of both puppy and chickies involved)

That said, puppy training was a huge success. Chickens have no fear whatsoever, and puppy (well, okay, he's 4, but still cute) is half in awe and half scared out of his wits (though this might be because we mentioned they were, technically, tiny little velociraptors). The Ancona and Orp just happened to be the chickies of the day when I took these photos. Also, the blanket -- he went and got it himself, crawled under it, and then and only then got close enough to sniff XDDD















And then, their first day outdoors! It was sunny and warm, and they ran around like crazy little torpedoes (some fluttering around like mad) for about two hours before deciding it was time to go back inside.

He seriously thinks they can't see him while he's under there. When the Ancona crawled on top, he got up and was like MOOOOOM GET IT OFF WHAT DO I DO GET IT OFF and the Ancona steadied herself with her wings and just sat on him like, Oh, you're warm and cosy. I think I'll stay. Poor puppy.

Could you help me out by telling me which breed my yellow and black ones are. They never told us.
And I believe the gray and black 1s are orbs.



The one in the front with the vaulted skull is either a white crested black or blue polish.

It also looks a little like our Ancona did, when she was a few days~1 week old. Does it look closer to this now? This is our Ancona at ~3.5 weeks

Well, we need a little bit more information. How old is she? From the photo (it's kind of dark), she looks... very young. Like, no feathers at all, just fluff, so is she under a week? I know their first day they can be a little wobbly.

Other than that, have you turned her over and check out her legs and feet? Was there any trauma (falling, fluttering, being trampled) that could have injured her legs? Also, is she eating and drinking if you bring the food and water to her?
